Hell yeah, i'd rock that. I've always wanted a 90's 8 series, the ones with the V12's. I've seen some stanced ones, pretty dope.

Im 45 min east of Raleigh. I think the only one with a 8 was me back in 2006. Now in my town there are around 3-5 but Im the only one that has modified it. What did you use for your tails? Paint or vinyl?

I used VHT Nite-Shade. It was really dark at first because I was all about the "murdered out" look. It has faded a bit and I actually like it. It just darkens the tails a bit.

I used the same thing and then sanded and buffed to get the faded look. it did spider one of my taillights a little though.

Luckily it didn't spider crack on mine. I got a small area on the side where is dripped a little. One of these days I will redo them. I didn't sand mine when I did it and there are a lot of imperfections.
